Lauren Sanchez couldn’t resist ogling her fiancé Jeff Bezos’s muscular physique on Monday as she watched him climb aboard his $500 million superyacht Koru.

The newly-engaged couple is enjoying another getaway on the high seas just weeks after they returned to Los Angeles following their early summer travels across the Mediterranean.

Sanchez, 53, kicked off the week with a photo of a shirtless Bezos, 59, stepping onto the superyacht’s ladder after a dip in the sea.

‘Is it just me, or is it hot outside?’ she cheekily captioned the image on Instagram.

The Amazon founder is looking off into the distance as he holds on to the ladder’s railings. He is wearing nothing but a pair of tropical-patterned swim trunks and a summer tan that enhances his toned arms and abs.

Sanchez’s saucy post earned thousands of likes and hundreds of comments in just a few hours, including messages from their celebrity friends.

Kris Jenner responded with a series of fire emojis, while celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe added, ‘I [love] u.’

A number of fans also credited Sanchez for the billionaire’s ripped physique, with television host Liberty Madison writing, ‘You changed his life!’

‘Love it. You’re keeping him young and fit,’ chef Penny Davidi agreed.

In 2017, Bezos shocked the world when he showed off his newly toned muscles after transforming himself from a scrawny bookstore boss to a buff billionaire.

His newfound devotion to fitness was believed to have been sparked by Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods for nearly $14 billion.

Bezos is reported to have worked with celebrity trainer Wes Okerson, who was credited with preparing actor Tom Cruise for his 2008 thriller Valkyrie.

Sanchez also prioritizes physical fitness and will share videos of herself working out from time to time.

The former news anchor showed off her figure in a skimpy hot pink bikini over the weekend while posing with her younger sister, Elena Sanchez Blair, who celebrated her 41st birthday on the Koru Sunday.

Sanchez reposted the snapshot of them on the ship’s deck on her Instagram Stories, writing, ‘Happy birthday beauty.’

When exactly Bezos and Sanchez first got together remains unknown, but their affair was exposed by the National Enquirer in January 2019.

Soon after, the entrepreneur and investor split from MacKenzie Scott, his wife of over 25 years and the mother of his four children. Following their divorce, Scott became one of the richest women in the world, with a four percent stake in Amazon.

Sanchez was married to Patrick Whitesell when her relationship with Bezos was outed. Her then-husband was reportedly the one who introduced her to Bezos in the first place.

Earlier this summer, Sanchez and Bezos spent about a month traveling the Mediterranean aboard the vessel before returning to Los Angeles

Whitesell, a powerful man in his own right, is the executive chairman of Endeavor, the parent company of talent agency William Morris Endeavor Entertainment (WME).

Sanchez shares two teenage children, Evan and Eleanor, with Whitesell. She also has a 22-year-old son, Nikko Gonzales, with her former NFL star ex Tony Gonzales.

Bezos and Scott finalized their divorce in April 2019 — the same month that Sanchez and Whitesell ended their marriage. The couple made their first public appearance together in May 2019, before jetting off to St. Barts for the holidays.

The billionaire’s superyacht was commissioned five years ago and named Koru after the Maori word for ‘new beginnings.’

Known then as ‘Project 721,’ the ship was built in the historic port of Zwijndrecht, close to Rotterdam in the Netherlands, by sailboat specialists Oceanco.

Previous designs include the 350-foot Black Pearl, an all-black aluminum sailing yacht designed for Russian billionaire Oleg Burlakov, who died of Covid in 2021 and whose family still owns the ship.

The Koru is the second largest sailing ship in the world, surpassed only by the Philippe Starcke-designed Sailing Yacht A, which is owned by Russian fertilizer billionaire Andrey Melnichenko.

Bezos may have been paying homage to Sanchez when he designed the superyacht, which features a wooden sculpture of a Roman goddess carved into the ship’s bow that looks strikingly similar to his bride-to-be.

The couple was first spotted on the Koru in May. Their weeks-long travels aboard the yacht and its 250-foot support vessel, Abeona, included stops in resort towns in Italy, France, and Spain.
